London Broncos Talent Pathway
Supporting the Talent Pathway
London Broncos are extremely proud of their success in developing players, many of whom who have gone on to be successful at the highest level. The London Rugby League Foundation supports the development programme for high potential rugby league players in the Junior age groups from U12s to U16s, which are run in conjunction with the London Broncos, the London Junior League and the RFL. This includes Lions Development Training & Assessment, which are a first step on the player pathway and are open to all, the Origin Series between the best of North London and South London, and potential Representative Honours.
Lions Development Training & Assessment
Lions Development Sessions are 2 hour training sessions designed to take core skills to the next level and for players to take a first step onto the London Broncos Player Pathway. Our Professional Coaches will provide top-quality training to help players improve their game, and will support and assess their development as they progress along the pathway. Performance in the Lions sessions will also contribute towards selection for the Origin Series later in the year.
"My son really enjoyed the session today and can’t wait for the next one. From a parental perspective I thought the drills were great and the coaches spoke clearly and encouragingly to the boys. Great to see rugby league growing!" Lee Hill, Parent.
There will be 3 sessions for each age group, U12s, U14s and U16s, held in North London and South London. Each session will cost only £5. Bookings are now open for the second sessions in May half-term. After the success of the first sessions in Easter holidays we expect these sessions to sell out quickly, so BOOK YOUR PLACE TODAY!
